Pilgrim Soldier

It’s official! Having 2 small children and a full time job are not compatible with being someone who loves reading! I have now been struggling to slowly get through the same short book for about 3 weeks. The problem is that the only available time is just before going to bed, at which point I’m simply too tired to read for any decent length of time!

It doesn’t help that my books to read pile is getting progressively taller and that doesn’t begin to include the books I’d like to read that I don’t own yet!

So if and when I do get a chance I’ll be reading:

In Darkest England and the Way Back In - Gary Bishop
The Prophetic Imagination - Walter Brueggemann
How (Not) to Speak of God - Pete Rollins
Red Moon Rising - Pete Grieg & Dave Roberts
A Third Testament - Malcolm Muggeridge
I Believe in the Dawn - Edward Read
Discipleship - David Watson
Revolution - Aaron White & Stephen Court
Church Next - Eddie Gibbs & Ian Coffey

The list is not exhaustive, but are the ones I’m particularly looking forward to in the coming weeks and, more realistically, months. The two that jump out of those more than others are Muggeridge’s ‘A Third Testament’ thanks to a great article at theRubicon recently and Gibbs/Coffey’s ‘Church Next’ which I had to read the first chapter of at my assessment conference back in February and found fascinating.
